Other than intentional meme distros, there are distros that have a bad reputation for various reasons. Manjaro maintains their own separate repository for software with the intention of making arch system upgrades less risky. But they’ve had many security and cert issues over the years that have broken the updates badly, ironically.
Ubuntu is a good distro from a functional angle, and has a ton on support you can get because it is so well known, but its parent company, Canonical is not great and suffers from all the most common problems that any corporate entity ends up suffering from.
The same can be said for a bunch of others. Lots of distros are perfectly fine, but have only one or two primary maintainers, so if they go off the deep end, or get sick, or otherwise leave the project, that distro likely will just die, and all its users will have to rapidly migrate to something else. That’s bad from an operational risk angle, but fine if you have your home partition backed up and are comfortable just migrating onto something else.
But also yeah, fuck Omarchy, that’s a weak ass distro.
What do you mean, “bad”?
